The substitution on permission application guide uses the retained current 2024 Rules and maintained official practice directions, including the September 2026 updates. Rule 63 separately preserves qualifying proceedings begun or filed before December 2, 2024 unless otherwise directed. Non-portal filing alone does not establish that transition.
